OPIUM SMUGGLING.

The Drag brought Into the United states
by Way of Detroit.
DETRGIT, MICH, March I2.-Large
quantities Of opium have been shipped
recently from Detroit. In some way the
customs authorities learned Of the fact.
They aeCertaiped that no such quantities
had passed their hands as were being sent
out Of The city regularly. A careful in
vestigation revealed to them the fact that
opium was being brought to America by
way OF British Columbia, shipped thence
to Ontario only to disappear and fnd its
way to Detroit. a ST. arch for the offend
ers resulted to-day in the arrest
of L. i. West, temporary
resident OF this city. West was
taken before United States Commissioner
Graves this afternoon and held in $l0,C 0G
bail to appear tomorrow to answer to
the charge of smuggling. The customs
authorities say that by the smuggling Of
this opium the government has been
swindied out of nearly $6G, 600 customs
duties. The opium was sent out from
This city usually to California, labeled
glassware" "drugs," etc. On It's re-
ceipt ct Windsor it appeared as "Cbinese
cUTiOs."
